Dear experts! I am a complete sucker in the matter of electronics! Tell me advice. There is a Panasonic RX-CT840 radio. Is it possible to increase the wires to the columns up to 10 meters per column? And is it possible to put wires of a larger cross section than standard ones? (I apologize in advance for a possibly stupid question))))

in the garage is like that! lengthen! everything will be fine, just don’t mess up the polarity in the wires, otherwise the low ones will disappear
The apparatus fire, the head start will give modern without problems
Possible with a possible decrease in quality. PySy apparatus - agony! :-D Dream of youth.
A dream of the 90s))) I had such a balalaika)) On the day of my 30th birthday, I put on tape auto-reverse with a single, but repeatedly recorded song of the Gaza Strip-Me today thirty years old and started in a circle from 9 am to 11 pm. I took the speakers out onto the balcony, lengthening it with a simple two-wire telephone transparent cable and letting it go at full capacity)) The neighbors just hung themselves up))) There is something to remember!
I have almost this, 870. Quietly pulls 15 cotton speakers (4 ohms). With large speakers, a completely different sound.
Try with other speakers. At least with Mayakovsky cubes.
I have the same in the country))) take the wires thicker and build up) it is better directly right from the speakers
Actually, we decided to do it first, then ask)
do not allow such errors anymore)
Otherwise, history does not work, experience is not earned (((
I would have pulled bare wires all over the house, at first, then set the alarm clock on the radio, woke up in the morning, the music shakes, you’re tearing the burning curtains under the Ramstein in shorts and with your black face, burning hair on the top, stomping them so that my toenails melt and they the smell is felt by all the neighbors, then you understand that I stomped so hard that I crushed the cat, which at that moment was under the curtains, etc.) And then if I continue here for 20 pages)))
Yes, at least twenty
Damn, this one already lives in the country for about 5 years, cool, after home HI-FI, of course, not really, but when the meat is fried in the barbecue, and the stove warms up in the house, it’s the very thing ...
can. I did 16 years ago)
eh good mafon ... I had one in 95 g ... they drove music all over the yard))
yeah in the hut. in a house with chicks to listen to buzzing ...))
I tried to read the flood in kamenty, spat.
I answer both of your questions.
Yes, you can extend the wires without any problems in any way available to you.
Yes, the thicker the wire, the better. At least put a welding cable, if any,) Unfortunately, a thicker wire is more expensive.
I will explain. The speaker resistance is 4 or 8 ohms (there are different ones). The resistance of 10m bad wire is 0.5-1 ohm. Sometimes even more. So, up to a quarter of the power of the amplifier will be lost in the wire.
You don’t need an “audio pipeline”; take a flexible (multi-core) wire in an electrical or hardware store. 2.5 squares or more.
Within reasonable limits, the capacitance, inductance and other "special" parameters of the wire will not affect anything.
And further. Soldering is only for those who can. If you do not know how to do it, it is better to twist with heat shrink, inept soldering will fall apart earlier than an inexperienced, but carefully made twist.
plused. the most competent answer.

In connection with the replacement of amplifiers, there are not enough wires, and on one side. It turns out that with one configuration there is not enough length of one wire for the HF, with another one for the LF. There are scraps of the same wires. Is it possible to lengthen the wire without loss of sound? the better to do it (soldering, through terminals or terminal, roughly twist and insulate). And on which wire is it better to do on treble or bass ?? Or is it all empty and need to be held out in a new way ??

Solder, insulate with heat shrink and do not worry. For complacency, extend the low frequency wire.
Sincerely, Alexander.

Solder, insulate with heat shrink and do not worry. For complacency, extend the low frequency wire.
add from myself - strip the wires again, immediately twist together and solder.
Oxides are noticeably audible, so all at once without a "solder tomorrow"
For the liability is actively on. go

How to choose an interconnect speaker cable
Acoustic wiring selection
If you want to buy an interconnect cable, you should give preference to a copper cable.
Choosing such a wiring, you need to look at:
- Length. So for interconnect cable is better when it is long. In this case, the speakers will play sounds at high volume.
- Marking. So, on each meter, there should be a mark on which the manufacturer is indicated.
Note: if such a label is missing or contains incorrect data, then the cable is not original. Most likely, he will not last long.
- It should also be indicated that the cable is indeed acoustic.
- The components of the conductor must be indicated.
- You should also pay attention to its thickness.
- Copper cables are also different. It depends on the quality of the copper from which they were made. So, there are cables made of oxygen-free and single-crystal copper.
Other species
How to choose speaker wiring
Also on sale there are such types of transactions:
- Composite cable. Moreover, they consist not only of copper, but also of other metals.
For example, inside the wire is copper, and on top is covered with some other metal. - Combined. In this case, metal and non-metal are combined.
For example, copper can be mixed with carbon. In this case, new properties will be obtained.
Speaker cable
- Twisted pair cable. There are also several species.
You can choose the option you need in accordance with the notation on it. Each individual species can have a different effect on the final result of the reproduced sound.
As the test showed, acoustic cables made of silver have the best performance. With their help, the sound is very high quality and clear.
Note: but only those who have the corresponding material capabilities can purchase such a wire, because its cost is from $ 100 per meter.
Wires made of single-crystal copper also give a good sound. In addition, even the lowest frequencies are transmitted with their help.
For speakers cable
Oxygen-free copper cables may produce different sounds. It directly depends on the manufacturer.
In this case, the quality of cheap Chinese options can not even be tried to discuss, since it is very low.
Note: without sufficient finance, you can buy an inexpensive cable, which was created by a well-known manufacturer.
Composite speaker cable has a uniform sound. However, sometimes music can “lisp”, due to the fact that the wire is made of tinned copper.
Composite speaker cable
Silver-plated copper cable gives the sound more expressiveness. Quite often, with its help, music becomes even better than in the original version.
Silver plated copper cable
It turns out that cable insulation also has a big impact on its quality. More precisely, this effect is not exerted by the insulation itself, but by the material from which it is made.
The best option is Teflon-insulated cables. At the same time, polypropylene has worse properties.
Independently pick up a cable for the speakers will not be difficult after reading this article. It is advisable to see photos and videos at home where one or another type of cable is described.
Thus, before going to the store there will already be appropriate preparation. The price may be different, depending on its individual properties.
In addition, the selected cable can even be installed with your own hands. However, this may require special instructions.
